Each held a wooden tray, with objects on them covered by red cloth.
Ye Muyu glanced at them, a flash of coldness quickly passed through her eyes but then returned to normal, becoming somewhat expectant.
"Shopkeeper, could you please introduce them?" Ye Muyu tapped her fingers lightly on the table.
The shopkeeper, hearing her words, did not refuse. After the waiters placed everything on the side and departed in single file, he finally lifted the first red cloth, revealing the true form beneath.
It was a Guanyin wood carving, vivid and lifelike.
Ye Muyu looked at it, her face showing appreciation and delight: "The craftsmanship of this wood carving... is truly excellent. I wonder if the shopkeeper would allow me to touch and examine it?"
The shopkeeper maintained his smile, like a Maitreya Buddha: "Madam's request is so simple, naturally I would not refuse."
"Madam, feel free to look. If there's any you like, that would be best."
